FS KKR Capital Corp. II, Decreases Net Asset Value (NAV)

According to its website, FS KKR Capital Corp. II is a business development company (BDC) designed to provide a high level of current income. The fund primarily invests in floating rate, senior secured loans of private U.S. middle market companies.

An investment in the common stock of FSK II involves a high degree of risk and may be considered speculative, according to its prospectus.

“Because there is no public trading market for shares of FSK II’s common stock and FSK II is not obligated to effectuate a liquidity event by a specified date, if at all, it is unlikely that you will be able to sell your shares. If you are able to sell your shares before FSK II completes a liquidity event, it is likely that you will receive less than you paid for them. FSK II historically repurchased a limited number of shares pursuant to its share repurchase program, which has currently been suspended. FSK II may reinstate, amend, suspend or terminate its share repurchase program at any time. In addition, any such repurchases will be at the distribution reinvestment price on the date of repurchase.”

Similar to non-traded REITs, Business Development Companies (BDCs) are illiquid investments. Investors looking to sell BDCs, such as FS KKR Capital Corp. II, often have difficulty finding a buyer, and can suffer significant losses on the sale.
